With the rarity of your axle, I suggest not throwing it away. Find a good shop and have it repaired for a back-up. Perhaps a driveline shop that usually welds driveshafts would be a good place, if you can't find a good tractor repair shop.

The axle in the 734 speedster broke in southern Alabama during a 10,000-mile trip around the U.S. in 1995. Before a replacement arrived via UPS, a tractor repair shop welded the axle back together. Almost 17 years later, the repaired axle is still in the car.
